I posted photos of this daylily last season asking if it looked like Mary Todd, even though the bloom color is very orangish instead of yellow. Most thought that it did, so I went ahead and entered it that way. I am wondering if this year it might actually have yellow blooms, but we'll have to wait on that for a while. I was down in the garden this morning and noticed that my "Mary Todd" was the tallest plant in that particular row of daylilies, and that the nicely forming clump had a strange way of looking almost like several different individual plants instead of a normal clump. Just wondering if any of you who grow Mary Todd could confirm that it is indeed a large plant and that it grows in this fashion.
Blooming on 06-02-215, this is what my bloom looked like last season.

The best I recall this plant was given to me with a list of possible names and Mary Todd was the only one that seemed to fit this plant. I was thinking possibly, it might have been Mary's Gold, but that name was not on the list , and the bloom does not look like that to me other than the color.
